Strolling through Cilicia - Kilikia'da Gezinti (EN)

The purpose of this workshop is to give continuity to the dialogue among young researchers which we started in 2010 and 2014 with the 1st and 2nd Workshop of young researchers on Studies of Antiquity and the Middle Age. These were organized by the fellows and PhD-students of the Department of Ancient and Medieval Studies. Just as in the previous editions, for this workshop we propose a topic which allows researchers from various disciplines to participate. This year’s topic will address the contact among cultures and communities as a subject of studying the past. With this workshop we intend to foster the participation of young researchers of various disciplines in scientific meetings as well as to provide an environment of discussion in order to exchange knowledge of diverse areas of the research connected to the Study of Antiquity and the Middle Age. We consider it particularly interesting to focus on the contact among cultures and communities throughout history from an interdisciplinary view. In doing so, our aim is to achieve a meeting point where Classical Philology, History and Archaeology come together. We are aware of the fact that the afore-mentioned contacts must be considered as an on-going process that continues over the centuries, so that its beginning and end cannot be established with precise dates. That is why the structure of this workshop will not follow a diachronic chronological criterion. Instead, the workshop will be divided according to large thematic areas which shaped the social relationships and which will allow appreciating continuities and changes over the centuries, as well as comparing the various approaches that the communities put into practice under analogous circumstances. We are convinced that the contributions of each participant, following the aforementioned criteria, can yield significant input. In addition, their methodologies and their case-studies will provide new points of view for the approach to cultural contacts throughout history. We aim at resuming the essence of the previous workshops and at contributing to the conceptual and methodological renewal of the last years. At present, the old praxis of approaching the past from a unique discipline is obsolete and interdisciplinary work gathering the efforts of philologists, historians and archaeologists is clearly required. Therefore, the organization encourages all PhD-students from all the disciplines which work on the past to participate in the workshop.
